A PLEA FOR DELlVERANCE.
A Sermon Showing That Human
Power Cannot Gone With SaIan

Power Cannot Cope With Satan.
At the Trinity Norwegian Lutheran
church Rev. NJ. Falk Gjertsen preached a
powerful sermon on THE Power of Satan
and the Means of Deliverance." His text
was taken from Math. XIV, 21-2S. Below
is synopsis of the sermon:
Through the lives and dying words of the
patrarchs. through the psalms and the
prophet, we hear cry for deliverance: so.
that the salvation of Israel were come out
of Zion. 20. that Thou wouldss rend the
heavens, that Thou wouldst come down."
And it was not temporal bondage, not the
yoke of Egypt and Babylon, that caused
this sigh of pain and expectation; there is a
worse captivity, more cruel tyrant than
PharOah and NebuchadneZZar. the captivity
in sin, the bondage of the devil and it is
deliverance from this terrible slavery that
was promised our fallen parents in the
garden, The seed OF woman shall bruise
the head of the serpent" lit is for this deliver
ance the fathers of old were signing. And
He has come, the llberator; He stands in the
midst of us bruising the serpent's head
casting out devils.
The power of the devil is fearful. How
many homes lie shattered, how many hearts
lie crushed, how many fond hopes lie
blasted in his path. See how re lays his
traps for the young, DISCUSSES himself, look
ing at them through a picture, touching
their hearts with a song, through q book,
from the stage, from the. sparkling wine
glass. How fearful is his power when he has
taken possession of them. See his chain
around the miser. the adulterer the drunk
ard, the gambler; hear his language on their
tongues in curses and blasphemies. Human
power cannot help. Education, science and
culture may learn to control the powers of
nature, but never the powers of darkness.
The highest institutions of learning are not
more moral and virtuouS THAI the common
schools, and our most cultured society, our
own Washington with its galaxy of states
men and its congregated wisdom, is not
more virtuouS than our farmer community
throughout Minnesota. Science and edu-
cation often only glve1 this fearful enemy
new weapon. Where is help? Where the
woman of Canaan found it. Jesus Christ
alone can cast out devils She was a
mother. A shipwrecked mother held up
her child out of the waves, crying: Save
my childn o, We mothers, do you pray for
your children? With your children do you
plead with them for Christ? How many of
you hold your sons and daughters up out of
the waves of danger and temptation. cry
ing: Save my child?" See how she holds
out. although seemingly cast off; how she,
bending her head humbly as The storm
passes over her, still clings to the Lord
with her prayer and her faith, until she has
conquered the Lord. And having con-
quered Him, having brought Him over on
her side, the devil is cong uered at the same
time.

TIE DANX CONCERT.
An Afternoon OF Melody at Har.
HAOnia


Fully 500 people assembled in Harmonic
hall yesterday afternoon to listen to the
eighth concert given by the Danz orchestra.
BY many who have atten ded the entire
series yesterdays entertainment was con-
sidered the best yet given. The opening
number, ''Shoene Galathe," overture of
Suppe, prepared the audience for
a rare treat. The first movement
of Ratf's symphony, lyon Walde," was
the second selection; it was splendidIy
played and received hearty applause. The
third number was all original composition
for string orchestra. the work of Ernest
Lachmund, the 'celloist of this city. 1t
represented the happiness which the Christ
mas tree brings to little folks; it consists of
four parts. the Christmas tree, hobby horse,
prayer and good night. Of these the first
and third were very beautiful, the one con-
sisting of light, sparkling air, full of
childish gladness; the prayer was an eXquis-
lite andante, and so suggestive of pious de-
vOtion was the deep harmony that the au-
dience was hushed and silent. The work
is highly creditable to its author, proving
that his musical knowledge is not Of that
superficial sort which displays itself in brill
liant technique alone.
Charles III. Freeman delighted the audi
ence with his flute solo, and. though the
applause was deafening, he could not be
prevailed upon to play second time. The

THE FRIEND OF GOD.
Abraham Was Gods Friend and
God Was Abra In a ms Friend.

Rev. J. J. Hall preached in the First
Free Baptist church on the subject, The
Friend of God" Taking for text the
words .He was called the friend of God"
Mr.. Hall said: LAS we look back to the
early age of humanity we feel like eXclaim-
ing. there were giants on the earth in those
daysr Men who stood above their fellows
and the age in which they lived. The
hook of Genesis deals chiefly with the lives
of seven such men, Abel, Enoch, Noah,
Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph. Exc
dus brings prominently before us Moses.
Among these, and in fact among all of
earthS great men, Abraham holds no sec
ondary place. The Jews 10 this
very day regard him as their
great ancestor, While Christians acknowledge
him. 1.-The father of the faithful" The
oncients were not ignorant OF his existence,
snd different sects have claimed him as the
patriarch and founder of their religion.
IRnt Abraham's highest honor is reached IN
This. that he was called the friend of God.
Not in the niche given him by history in
bar temple, but in the place accorded him
nv 1he Almighty. And if Abraham was
Gods friend. God was Abraham's friend.
Peared among an idolatrous people, he
boldly chose to become a servant and WOr
sinner of the Most High. If he were the
only worshiper of the God of heaven he
waS willing 10 stand alone, and as brilliant
light seems to shine the more intensely be-
canse of the darkness around 1t, so the
choice of Abraham appears the more slgnl-
fcant in contrast to the superstition and
nractices of the people among whom he lived.
Rv his implicit obedience Abraham proved
the sincerity of his friendship to God. His
i;fe was remarkable for the many and often
startling summonses which came to him from

Extraordinary Contempt of Court.
London Talaoropb

LODuou IeleSrapn.
An extraordinary incident has just oc-
Cured at the Rouen court of appeal.
Three men who had been sentenced to
various terms of Imprisonment at Havre
appealed to the Rouen court. They were
brought in together, and on the first pris-
oner being asked the question, "Have you
appealed" he replied, Yes, I did it to see
ii the Rouen judges were as great rascals as
those of Hayre''
This piece of impudence produced great
sensation, and the man was forthwith con-
demned to one years Imprisonment for in
sulting the magistrates.
What was the general surprise when the
second prisoner, on being asked the same
question, returned an Identical reply. This
time the judges dealt out a double penalty,
and he was sent off with two years i'm
prisOnment to his book.
No one dreamed that the third man would
dare to face the court in this insolent fas h.
ion after the punishment to which his two
companions had been treated, and thrill of
amazement ran through the audience when,
in answer to the formal query. ''Have you
appealed" he returned the same reply:
Eyes: did so to see if the Rouen Judges
are as great rascals as those OF Havre."
The court sentenced this man to three
years prison.

Curiosities OF Horse Trading.

stopped the proceedings. He suggested in
stead that it change owners by the pitching
of dice. Thirty persons took part, and the
owner and another man held the highest
number. In final pitch his opponent won.
When the animal was being led away it fell
helpless while descending clay bank. This
so worked on the sympathies of its original
owner, and aggravated the feelings of the

Waterbury American
DR.. John ID. Meers, of Naugatuck, was
widely known as one of the most skillful
and successful physicians of his time. His
practice among the farmers was quite ex-
tensive and it was his custom to take his
pay for services III the produce of the farm,
seldom or never keeping accounts or max
ing any charges, but sending for bushel of
potatoes or corn or barrel of cider as he
happened to want it. His drafts on the
farmers were always honored at sight, for
he used to say he Ibid not intend to over
draw" and, as the families in those days
were large and the children quite as likely
to be sick then as now, it is quite likely that
he paid in his way for all that he
received. He was always very careful
not to lnJure his patients and gave very lit
tie medicine, but, if called to see man
who was little out of sorts, would pre-
scribe diet of toast and cider, or some
thing equally simple, and leave nature to
effect cure. He was once called to see a
man who had been in bed several days, and
on entering the room he sat down, stuck
his long legs under the bed, moved his spec
tacles to the top of his bald head, and sat
and told stories for an hour. He then sent
one of the boys to draw glass of cider,
which he drank and made his preparations
to leave the house. The sick man asked if
he was not going to prescribe for him, or
give him something to take.
''Oh, yes. yes" replied the doctor: ''you
just get up and stir about little and wash
up and put on clean shirt, and you will be
all right, | guess"
Notwithstanding the doctors peculiari-
ties in such cases. he was one of the most
careful and devoted physicians in cases of
dangerous illness. and would often appear,
unsolicited and unexpected, in the sick
room long after midnight, so great was his
anxiety for the welfare of his patients

Another feature of recent legislation that
is bothering the saloonkeepers is in the
Crandall law which provides that licenses
issued during March, April, May and June,
1887, shall expire July L, and shall be issud
for the intervening time pro rata. If this
is done the saloons will pay $50 per month
from May to July 1. There is DISPOSE
ton on the part of some of the aldermen to
allow the saloons to run without license for
the two months, and City Attorney Gross
says that this can be done, or that nomi-
nal tax for May and June can be fixed.

to the saloonkeepers will. of course, be OPP
